if you used setup.py the .sdb file will be in /home/weewx/archive and should contain all your simulator data. It may be useful to edit weewx.conf and set debug=1 to get more detailed logging - remember to set it back to 0 when you have finished. On Monday, 13 July 2020 16:58:38 UTC+3, Michae

setting station type to simulator effectively creates a station which pretends to create data and gives the data to weewx. weewx then does everything it should do with the 'received' data including generate reports. it will also store the dta in the database, so when you have finished using s

Andre, Thanks for the response - in the [StdReport] section of the weewx.conf, it shows, "where generated reports should go, relative to WEEWX_ROOT HTML_ROOT= public_HTML" Since the station is set to Simulation, will there be any reports generated? TIA Michael H Grossie mhgros...@sbcglobal.net

First, take a look to your weewx.conf Section [StdReport] There is HTML_ROOT = /path/name/path If you have only have one website you can point to your default Apache2 path or you can edit your /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf After editing restart Apache2 with sudo /etc/init.d/apache

How did you guys configure Apache? Apache2 for instance is able to serve multiple/different sites from different directories based on the requesting url. I created a virtualhost in Apache based on the url, which tells Apache to serve the weewx pages from the directory where they are located. You

Re: [weewx-user] Re: Apache is not showing /weewx on Ubuntu 16.04.1

I am not an apache expert either, but from what I can tell, the problem is that the weewx Debian installs sets HTML_ROOT incorrectly. It's being set to /var/www, when it should be /var/www/html. Because of this, the HTML files are being put in a directory that is not accessible to the Apache serve

The alternate solution is for you to edit weewx.conf to have it save its files in the place the webserver expects things. The underlying issues are: - there are lots of webservers to pick from, they pick different locations for document root - operating systems differ in where they set

The simple answer is to do what Vince said - put a symbolic link in the apache root. Looking at other instructions, out of curiosity - from the quick start guide: After about 5 minutes, open the station web page in a web browser. You should see your station information and data. *file:///var

You're probably right in that it looks as though the guide assumes apache2 is installed first, before the deb install - although there then appear to be some linguistic issues with present tense used when maybe it should be future!! I don't use apache2 either - preferring lighttpd on my rpi. On
